Harman Kardon AVR330 7.1-Channel A/V Receiver (Gray/Black)

For sources such as CD, VCR, TV broadcasts, and the AVR330's own FM/AM tuner, a choice of several matrix surround-encoded or stereo surround modes are available, including Dolby 3 stereo, hall, and theater modes. To maximize use of your listening environment, the AVR330 offers Harman Kardon's exclusive Logic 7 processing in both 5.1- and 7.1-channel versions to create a wider, more enveloping field environment and more defined fly-overs and pans. In addition, VMAx surround-like simulation uses proprietary processing to create an open, spacious sound field even when only two front speakers are available. The receiver also includes complete digital bass management. Its onboard AM/FM receiver includes both AM and FM antennas and gives you 30 presets for storing your favorite stations. The remote control features EZSet, which automatically sets output levels for optimum performance, and the package includes connections for setting up a second listening environment, complete with a second ("Zone II") remote control.

For video management, the AVR330 gives you component video, S-video, and composite video inputs and outputs, as well as a host of audio connections. The receiver allows you not only to pass digital signals through to compatible devices for recording, but also to convert analog signals to a PCM digital signal for recording to a digital device such as a MiniDisc or CD recorder. It features coaxial and optical digital audio inputs and outputs and a host of analog inputs and outputs, including front-panel digital and A/V inputs for easy connection to portable digital devices and video game consoles. In all, it gives you three coaxial digital inputs, three optical digital inputs, coaxial and optical digital outputs, five A/V audio inputs, tape inputs, CD audio inputs, and 6- or 8-channel direct inputs for use with DVD-audio or SACD players and any other products with internal surround decoders. It also gives you subwoofer and preamp outputs. All input, output, and speaker terminals are color-coded and comply with CEA standards for easy installation.
